our team
Graduated in tourism at ECA-USP, I've been working with travel programs for about 10 years and am passionate about international education. I studied different languages in 5 countries, finished my internship in Switzerland and I'm constantly looking for new challenges. I'm the youngest brother in my family, I don't play soccer and, despite the fact I lived in so many different countries, I love Brazil and wouldn't trade living here for anything! I've got a bicycle, 2 citizenships, and 1 addiction: Chico Buarque.
A graduate of the University of Illinois, I had the distinct pleasure during my studies to experience Brazil and its people, music and environment. I am a patriotic Midwestern American, however if excitement for a culture could decide nationality, I would undeniably be Brazilian. I love live music, Football (American) though Brazil has made me a convert for futebol, surfing and traveling. You cannot keep me inside, I am an avid outdoorsman and like Marina an environmental-buff; I have great respect for the strides we continue to make with Campus Green!
I have a degree in Tourism and a post-grad in tourism and hospitality marketing management at ECA-USP. I've been working in this field for more than 12 years. I lived in Ireland for 1 year to study English in Galway. I love travelling, so I backpacked around Europe and North of America. I believe you can do everything in your life! I love cats and books, especially fiction.
I obtained my B.A in International Relations at PUC-SP. I started working in the International Education field during my sophomore year, and every day since I find this field more and more fascinating. I'm a curious person. I love learning new languages and I do believe that every trip can be converted into a great gastronomic journey. I love Brazilian culture, so whenever I come back from traveling abroad I have to spend weeks listening non-stop to Tom Jobim.
For the past 25 years I have lived in college communities in Houston, Seattle, Urbana-Champaign and now Boulder, Colorado. It has been a privilege to be engaged in the lives of young people and in touch with trends in higher education, especially the growing emphasis on global experiences. I attended the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign for both my Bachelors and MBA degrees. While I did not have the opportunity to go abroad as a student, I have been making up for it in the last decade traveling extensively in Europe and Asia in addition to Brazil. I enjoy an active life with my husband in the Rocky Mountains hiking, skiing, cycling, playing golf and fostering Brittany Spaniels.
I've studied Tourism at the University of São Paulo and I am currently thinking about future plans of study. In the meanwhile I enjoy my favorite hobbies: TV series, movies, music, cooking and dancing. I have lived in Spain for 6 months and have done an wonderful Eurotrip that nowadays makes me miss a lot getting to know new countries and cultures (I guess the expression "wanderlust" suits me). Furthermore, I am a vegetarian, passionate about all kind of animals, nature and life.
Graduated in Marketing and MBA at Lewis University – USA and PhD in International Relations at Jilin University – China. For the last 10 years, I have been deeply involved in the field of international education, including the areas of teaching, counselling, recruitment, and researching. I enjoy playing sports, listening to jazz (Bossa Nova), reading about international politics, and tasting exotic foods. After 13 years of working, studying, and living abroad, I have returned to Brazil. Throughout my experiences around the world, I learned to enjoy every single moment: Carpe Diem!
I study Accountancy Sciences at Universidade Nove de Julho. My way of enjoying life is to dance and hanging out. I'm shy but fun at the same time. I love chocolate, soccer and the beaches of Brazilian northneastern. A dream? I'd like to visit Disney and travel around the world. Nice to meet you, Letícia
I'm a "newborn" tourism bachelor, graduated by University of Sao Paulo, completely in love for the professional area I chose. I really believe in the power that travel experiences have on people, and consequently in our society. A dream?! I know it might sounds like Miss Universe speech, but i'd like to make the world a better place. I'm a tourist even on my own town, I like to walk across downtown Sao Paulo (witch we like to call "old town), ride a bike on Faria Lima avenue and I always get crazy (in a good way) whenever I watch/experience street art of any kind. I love to be around people, and the more different they'r from me, better! Aoh, I'm little "Disney freak", and in 2014 a big dream came true to me: I had the chance to participate of an vacation internship in Orlando, on Walt Disney World Resorts. I already have traveled to Europe and to some american cities. Nice to meet you, Gabi.

Hi, i´m Fernando! I’m currently studying Advertising at Mackenzie Presbyterian University, and i also have a degree in graphic design. So, apart from being that awkward and shy guy, i am the visual communication guy. I like to think that i am a hard worker man who does his best everyday. My greatest pride is to be a good example for my family and friends, and my long-term and biggest dream is to do something to change people's lives for the better. In my precious spare time i like to make and listen to some music, read and write all sorts of stuff, watch Game of Thrones and other tons of TV shows and movies (kind of a cinephile here), and, of course, sleep (cause nothing is better than sleep).
